War is once again descending on Yemen, a country once described as the world’s worst humanitarian disaster.

The country is currently experiencing its most serious spell of fighting since 2022, when a United Nations-brokered truce halted eight years of a war that had killed tens of thousands of people.

Generative AI is becoming a routine part of how many students conduct research, create projects and solve problems. While GenAI can make learning more accessible and efficient, it can also make it easier for students to accept plausible-sounding errors, skip important reasoning or rely on technology before developing their own understanding.

Our latest look at The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has come and gone, and Link has never looked more moist. The latest footage from Nintendo's upcoming nostalgia trip has set tongues wagging about the game's art style — is it adorable or creepy? Does the look evoke the cozy covers of Terry Pratchett books or a Thomas Kinkade mall kiosk? While no one seems to dispute that the new Ocarina's riff on familiar locations like The Great Deku Tree and Hyrule Castle Town looks terrific, the character models for child Link and Zelda have already proven to be a bit more divisive.

Since expanding from theater into film, writer-director Florian Zeller has specialized in examining the pressure of mental health issues on families — dealing with dementia in The Father and depression in The Son, both based on his plays. His third feature, Bunker, puts an outwardly happy marriage under the microscope as fissures start forming and it’s most rewarding when the psychological give and take between two people who love each other remains in tight focus. That’s in large part due to the galvanizing performances of real-life couple Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem, for whom the film was written, bringing an electric emotional charge to scenes of both intimacy and estrangement. 

Consider, for a moment, the cupboard — maybe in the spirit of irreverence we should term it a closet — in which, for 30-odd years, lay undisturbed the footage that future star cinematographer Seamus McGarvey (“Atonement,” “Die, My Love”) shot behind the scenes of Derek Jarman‘s 1991 movie “Edward II”. Consider then, the opening of that closet and the discovery of what it contained. For a certain type of cinephile, spooling through those rushes for the first time and realizing that they essentially open up a wormhole to the past as lived in the present tense, it must have been like finding Narnia, with Jarman a puckish, charming, proudly queer Aslan.
